So in the midst of talking about my accuracy analysis or ranking of the rankings that I did with fantasy football expert sites, what I haven't mentioned so far is that I've agreed with the FSTA to take a stab at doing an accuracy analysis for fantasy baseball as well. As you can probably tell from the name of this blog, my fantasy focus is really football and I know little about fantasy baseball - so here's my request from you all for names of fantasy baseball expert sites that you would like to see analyzed. I can get my research skills in gear here and find some of the bigger names but if there are smaller sites that you'd like included, leave a message in the comments or e-mail me.

One of my favorite football news items for the week is the news about the United Football League, a four-team startup football league that will begin its six-week season in October. For a list of the cities and details on who is throwing money into the UFL, check out this article. Will watching the UFL games provide some quality fantasy football prep with a chance to scope out talent?

Onto other links for the day...

I'm still working through a mock draft (we're in round 8 of 10) and I was bummed to see Dallas Clark just go off the board - I was hoping he would land to me at the 8.07 spot but I should've known he'd disappear early in the 8th round. So to help me prep for tight ends I've been scoping out CBS Sports' Faceoffs: Spotlighting the tight end position.

Take a look at Rotoworld'sTop 20 Dynasty League Buys for a wide array of suggestions from the RashardMendenhalls to the Brent Celeks to the Tom Bradys of the football world.

ProFootballReference.com is one of my main stops during the offseason since they often crank out interesting factoids, rankings, statistical analyses, etc that are often worth the read. This week's post on ranking the best WRs in NFL history doesn't disappoint.

About Me

I could spend all day watching college football on Saturdays (go Northwestern!) and pro football on Sundays (go Broncos!) just to do it all over again the next weekend. This will be my 8th year playing fantasy football and I've got several championships under my belt, including a win (and trip to the 2009 Super Bowl) in the inaugural Buffalo Wild Wings FF League.
So why Fantasy Football Librarian? I'm a librarian at a museum in New York City (though we just moved to Knoxville, Tennessee) and love to research stuff. What could be better than combining my love for football and research? So in September 2006, I launched FFLibrarian to try and create one place for fantasy fans to find the info they need to succeed. I've also been conducting an accuracy analysis of the experts' rankings since 2007 with support from the Fantasy Sports Trade Association, and have written columns for The New York Times' Fifth Down blog and the Bruno Boys.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or suggestions. Here's to the 2012 season!
